Chapter 658: Chapter 644: Perish Together
The courtyard fell into silence.
The decisive battle was tomorrow. Whether they could put up a fight was yet to be seen.
Ye Chen quietly sipped his tea, under a sowhat cold moonlight.
Rong’er ca over too, not knowing where Guo Yuyun had gone to et with a man.
“Is there sothing you’re worried about?” Rong’er noticed Ye Chen looking quite lost, probably pondering on sothing.
Ye Chen said, “You’re right, if we really do fight with the Third Demon, our strength might only be barely equivalent, and we have to face the rise of No. One Heroes. I don’t know what will co next!”
“It is quite a headache.” Rong’er continued, “Isn’t Shi Mu on Yang Jing’s side? Could we use him to take down Yang Jing and capture Ghost City with the smallest price?”
Ye Chen chuckled after hearing that, it’s an idea worth considering, but it might not guarantee success.
Rong’er continued, “I heard that Shi Mu is now favored by Yang Jing, even more so than Gui Lang and his group. If Yang Jing died for no apparent reason, and his death were to be blad on the Third Demon, could Shi Mu possibly beco the master of Ghost City and the leader of No. One Heroes?”
Ye Chen said, “You have quite an imaginative mind, so clever.”
“You thought the sa, didn’t you?”
“Of course, ideally, it would be as you said, but success is uncertain.”
“Do you think it’s viable?”
“We’ll have to take our ti with it.”
“If we could kill Yang Jing and capture No. One Heroes, we could join forces in the future to defeat Yuan nhai. Isn’t that wonderful?”
Suddenly, the mad screams of the young girl echoed through, so hurried as if soone was chasing her. She was holding a piece of bamboo in each hand with a black, smoky thing in between and rushed in.
She yelled, “out of the way!”
The thing was still emitting white smoke, and there was a sll of sothing burnt.
Rong’er stood up.
Guo Yuyun put your things on the ground.
It turned out to be a roast chicken freshly dug out, with the outer layer of mud still unopened.
Wan Danrong said, “Don’t burn yourself.”
Guo Yuyun was so excited, she was about to open it, while yelling, “Rong’er, get a plate.”
With one smash, the mud exploded outwardly in all directions.
The scent that had been suppressed for several hours wafted out, filling the entire courtyard with the sll of roast chicken.
Ye Chen said, “when it cos to eating, you never forget.”
“It’s my only hobby, so what!” It seed like her fingers got burnt, so she touched her earlobe, her eyes fixated on the opened roast chicken.
Soon, Wan Danrong ca in with the piping hot roast chicken and placed it on the table.
Before Guo Yuyun could wash her hands and co back, Ye Chen’s hand already ventured towards the chicken, mumbling, “The chicken leg is mine.” He already broke one off.
“Hehe, how could you eat the chicken leg. The chicken legs belong to Rong’er and .” Guo Yuyun began to run over.
Ye Chen spat on the chicken leg and asked, “Still want it?”
Guo Yuyun glared at him and scread, “Don’t you feel disgusting!”
“I might just spit all over the roast chicken, don’t try .”
After hearing that, Guo Yuyun quickly moved the chicken leg from his sight.
Ye Chen happily said, “It’s not bad.”
Guo Yuyun was already digging in, while shouting, “Rong’er, you better co now. That guy might finish the chicken butt too, leaving you none.”
Rong’er was laughing from afar.
Ye Chen said, “The chicken butt, which is so nourishing, is better left for you.”
Guo Yuyun was already starving, she had been waiting for the roast chicken for such a long ti, she said, “What are you tidying up, we are going to abandon this place tomorrow anyway, tidying up will be in vain.”
Then, Rong’er started to walk over.
“Just because you ate one chicken leg, doesn’t an you can have more.” It seems like one roast chicken wasn’t enough for herself.
“Alright, the chicken head and chicken butt are yours. You can have them to make you well-rounded.”
Rong’er burst into laughter after hearing that.
Guo Yuyun hit him with her palm.
“Your hands are all greasy, don’t touch my clothes, I just changed.” Ye Chen beckoned.
Rong’er laughed, “Our Yun’er doesn’t need any nourishnt to be well-rounded.”
Guo Yuyun glared at her, and Ye Chen burst out laughing.
Rong’er said, “Being well-rounded is attractive, boys like it.”
“You’re the one who’s well-rounded.” Guo Yuyun shouted, fearing that Ye Chen might butt in, she moved the entire roast chicken aside.
Ye Chen pretended to spit again.
Frightened, Guo Yuyun shouted, “dare spit again, I’ll kill you.”
“All this fuss over a roast chicken! You are such a foodie.”
“Yeah, I am a foodie. So what?”
“Okay, foodie. From now on, I’ll just call you Foodie.”
Not long after, Jiang Zhuge ca to call for Ye Chen, saying, “The Xue brothers are waiting for you outside.”
Ye Chen stood up, discarding the chicken bone in his hand, and said, “Rember, don’t eat everything. Leave
so.”
Upon hearing this, Guo Yuyun replied, “Don’t worry. I will definitely save the chicken butt for you.”
Ye Chen had already followed Jiang Zhuge outside. The decisive battle would be held tomorrow. Success or failure was now at stake. He had to make everything clear to them tonight.
In the square, he saw the Xue brothers and the other sect leaders of New City Sect.
Xue Tian didn’t know what Ye Chen’s plans for tomorrow were, but he heard that the Third Demon’s people had found a flaw in the defense system. With a serious expression, he said, “I heard that Ling Bo and his team have found a flaw in our defense system.”
Ye Chen rely nodded in response.
“If that’s the case, they’ll definitely exploit our weakness tomorrow and break our defense system.”
Again, Ye Chen simply nodded.
Seeing Ye Chen’s unperturbed deanor, as if he already had a counterplan, Xue Tian asked, “Sect Leader Ye, do you have another plan?”
Ye Chen replied, “Yes, I do. They are going to breach our defense system tomorrow, and we are going to blow up the lake.” He rembered when Xiao Bai had previously dug up the lake. Why couldn’t he do the sa to confront the people of the Third Demon?
“Are you saying you plan to drain the lake and flood Wasteland City?” Xue Tian was taken aback.
“Yes, I’m sure they never thought we would flood our own city. But don’t worry, I have a backup plan. Xiao Bai already flooded Wasteland City once. Now it’s our turn to afford them a taste of their own dicine.”
Xue Tian still looked surprised. He glanced at Xue Ran.
“Once the flood cos, find a way to leave by boat. Wasteland City isn’t worth much, and flooding it won’t make a significant difference. If it severely hurts the Third Demon, that’s enough.”
“How are you going to handle Yuan nhai? His spiritual stone is so powerful, no one can match it.”
Ye Chen responded, “A spiritual stone can explode when it reaches a critical point, and I don’t think Yuan nhai knows this. Tomorrow, I plan to push the spiritual stone past this point and make it completely uncontrollable.” After a day of testing, he was sowhat confident that Yuan nhai was not aware of this.
“You are capable of this?”
Ye Chen thought for a while. He had already tried it today and said, “I should be able to.” It was doable as long as he could team up with the Red Demonic Spirit and be patient.
“If it explodes, wouldn’t that be very dangerous?”
“I’ll be prepared. But when the ti cos, you should keep your distance,” Ye Chen said.
Xue Tian seed to feel relieved, as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his chest.
Ye Chen said, “Thank you very much, everyone. No matter what happens tomorrow, I am truly grateful to you all.”
“Hey, don’t say that. If we can wipe out the Third Demon, we will also be very happy. After all, we already have an ongoing feud with the Third Demon. If we don’t deal with them now, they will co for us in the future.”
Hearing this, Ye Chen chuckled.
If Wasteland City is flooded, where will you go in the future?”
“The Wastelands are vast. There are many places we could go. You won’t be stranded.”
Xue Ran laughed and said, “If we really don’t have a place to go, we’ll retreat to our dark territories.”
Ye Chen laughed and said, “The dark territories are tiny. With you two gods there, it’s enough. If we stay, wouldn’t it be a bit crowded?”
Xue Ran quickly replied, “Bullshit. Staying with you guys from the New City Sect makes us happy. How could we feel crowded?”
However, Xue Tian said, “Sect Leader Ye has lofty aspirations and won’t be content with a simple life in the dark territories.”
“You think too highly of ! I just want to find a way to survive. Now, we’re being forced into a situation where we barely have a way out. We have no choice.” Ye Chen laughed.
“I heard that there’s going to be a significant incident in the Central Plains. The Dragon Slaying Clan wants to release the Raging Wolf Clan that’s been kept in the Demon Valley for centuries.”
“Yes, that’s true, but I haven’t heard any news from that side in the last two days.”
“If the Raging Wolf Clan is released, the human world will be in chaos. We won’t be able to live in peace.”
“Let’s hope the beings from the world of gods and devils can stop it!”
Xue Tian nodded slightly and said, “Well, now that you have all the plans figured out, I feel more at ease.”
Ye Chen looked at the leaders around him and said, “Alright, you should all be clear about our plan now, right?”
They all affird Ye Chen’s words.
“It’s getting late. Having fought all day yesterday, we should get so good rest. Any issues can be discussed tomorrow.” Ye Chen already stood up.
Whether he could deal another blow to the Third Demon depended on this ti. This thought occurred to Ye Chen as he stood.
Li Mo followed behind Ye Chen and said, “I don’t think Yuan nhai could ever dream that we would use the sa strategy that Xiao Bai used to flood Wasteland City against them.”
Ye Chen remained silent.
“Who would have thought that the very thing they want to burn down again – Wasteland City – is what we’re going to flood.”
Kong Sha said, “Worst case scenario, we die with them.”
Ye Chen chuckled, “I won’t die with them.”
The moonlight was bright and clear, and a quail was calling for its mate in the distance, its cry audible from miles away.
